The bank noted that PSI will certainly place "significant stress" on bank solvency and have impact of balance sheets. And that would trigger the need for "large-scale" banks recapitalization. Even if the economic fundamentals before and after application PSI are unchanged, the could be "sudden increase in risk aversion" and market access of some countries "maybe hampered. And the bank warned that would eventually damage the reputation of the Euro. The comments revive some concerns that investors would need much more than the anticipated 21% write down on Greek bond holding, and could be as much as 50%.

EUR/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3634; (P) 1.3734 (R1) 1.3885; More.
With 4 hours MACD crossed below signal line, a temporary top is formed at 1.3833 and intraday bias is turned neutral. Nevertheless, another rise in EUR/USD will remain in favor as long as 1.3565 minor support holds and above 1.3833 will target 61.8% retracement of 1.4548 to 1.3145 at 1.4012, which is close to 1.4 psychological level. On the downside, though, break of 1.3565 will indicate that rebound from 1.3145 has completed and will turn bias back to the downside for retesting this low.

US Session: Orders and Options Watch

JPY: The greenback reversed yesterday's gain and slipped from the 1-month high of 77.49 back to its usual 76.70 level and further consolidation is likely to take place. Criticism from the Democratic Party on government's measures of intervention and monetary easing pushed the yen higher. Bids at 76.90-00 were absorbed but buying interest is still seen at 76.50-60 and further out at 76.30-40 with stops building up below 76.30 and 76.00 option barrier. On the upside, offers are now seen from 77.00 up to 77.50 (every 10 points interval) with stops building up above 77.50 and further out above 77.90-00.

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD – Buy at 1.5595

As the British pound has remained under pressure after intra-day retreat from 1.5762, retaining our view that consolidation below yesterday’s high of 1.5798 would take place and near term downside risk remains for retracement to1.5641 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.5544-1.5798), however, renewed buying interest should emerge around 1.5596 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement of 1.5270 to 1.5798) and bring another rise later.

Trade Idea: USD/CAD – Hold long entered at 1.0150

Despite yesterday’s decline to 1.0133, the subsequent rebound has retained our near term bottomish view and consolidation with mild upside bias remains for rebound to resistance area at 1.0329-38, however, break there is needed to confirm low is formed and bring a stronger rebound to 1.0410/20. Looking ahead, it is necessary to see a breach of resistance at 1.0480-90 to signal the correction from 1.0658 has ended.
